Meet our Marketing Executive - Emilie

Last time we shared with you a little insight to the team behind SP, you loved it. So, we thought we would share a little more about our amazing workforce here on the farm!

Emilie has been working on the farm for nearly two years now, which seems to have gone in the blink of an eye. Working as part of our fantastic marketing team, we wanted to share a little insight to Emilie's day on the farm!

Quick Fire Round:

Tea or Coffee? Coffee

Film or Series? Series! (Love a good drama)

Spring/Summer or Autumn/Winter? Autumn/Winter

Cats or Dogs? Dogs (You can't not love them here on the farm!)

Holidays Abroad or the UK? UK Holidays! Unless we are visiting my dad in Florida

What do you do on a daily basis at Shropshire Petals?

Drink (lots) of coffee! But, on a serious note, you will find me behind our social media channels, sharing inspirational idea's creating content and doing lots of fun stuff! When I am not being a social media geek, I am reaching out to lots of lovely venues, and magazines and seeking as many opportunities for our amazing brand to be seen! Additionally, I write blogs, and case studies whilst organising wedding shows. It's busy, but I love it!

What's your favourite part of the job?

Anything creative, I simply love getting involved in a new project. Whether that's creating our latest reel, photographing our new mixes, or working behind the scenes, I love seeing my ideas come to fruition.

(One of my highlights this year was welcoming 'Escape to the Country' and 'Garddio A Mwy' to the farm for some filming!)

What do you love most about working at Shropshire Petals?

It's like one big family. I had wanted to work for SP for a while before getting my foot in the door. The reputation the farm has beyond its gates is truly wonderful, and being a small part of what we do here is amazing.  No day is ever the same, from the rainy winter days to seeing our fields in full bloom in the summer; each and every one has its own special charm.

If you had to make your own bespoke confetti mix, what would it be?

This changes weekly, if I am honest. I love the pinks in Berries and Cherries as it reminds me of my own wedding. However, I do really love the cheerfulness that comes from Tutti Fruity! So probably a bit of both, a bespoke pick and mix of Burgundy Berry, Cherry Blossom, Icing Sugar, Amethyst, and Honey B!

When you're not on the farm, what do you do with your spare time?

I run my own small business, The Country Rose. Which I launched in November 2021 from our kitchen. In a nutshell, I turn watercolour paintings into home textiles. I'm proud of my British roots, so everything is made in the UK.

When I am not busy with that, I am usually running around after my toddler and husband who also works on a farm. Summer evenings are often spent taking dinner out to the combine, where we all cram ourselves into the cab (the dog included) for a picnic tea (it has been known on occasion to enjoy a Sunday roast or steak!)

Now you know a little more about Emilie, you can picture the face behind our socials. If you are following us, pop up and say hi! As she is always happy to help.
